Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bonnet arrangement according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • DE-C-29 22 893 proposes the bonnet and the fender in the area of supporting joints formed between these two parts with energy-absorbing U-profiles running along the two parts on construction boards, in the event of a collision, the impact in deformation energy convert.
  • the disadvantage of this arrangement on the one hand, that already considerable forces must act on the profiles to bend them.
  • DE-A-27 37 876 describes an impact protection device which is a net-like Collecting element by means of a prestressed pivoting flap from a Rest position, in which the net essentially rests against the bonnet, in displaced a collecting position, which is substantially before Windscreen of the motor vehicle runs.
  • This facility serves more the windshield as the protection of the pedestrian from being too hard Impact on the bonnet.
  • every touch of the Swiveling motion triggering, integrated in the front bumper Sensors cause the network to be triggered, causing a Variety of constellations occur in which the network the driver entire view takes.
  • DE-A-2841215 describes a safety device in which, in response to a signal of a sensor arranged in the front region of a vehicle to detect a collision with a pedestrian the front hood from a Rest position in a contrast raised impact position by a Kolbe cylinder unit is shifted, whereby the shift by a Energy storage takes place.
  • a sensor arranged in the front region of a vehicle to detect a collision with a pedestrian the front hood from a Rest position in a contrast raised impact position by a Kolbe cylinder unit is shifted, whereby the shift by a Energy storage takes place.
  • DE-A-197 10 417 describes an arrangement for lifting the front hood, when pivoting about one at the front of the vehicle arranged horizontal axis of rotation is triggered by the same gas spring, the lifting of the hinged at the other end bonnet supported.
  • DE-A-197 21 565 describes a safety device on motor vehicles for lifting the bonnet, when lifting the bonnet speed-dependent by an integrated with the hood lock Mechanism takes place. This is either the usually off For safety reasons released from the driver's cab unlocking a compression spring acted upon lock by a sensor by an impact is triggered, triggered, or alternatively in particular at higher speeds one in the locking bolt of Hood lock integrated piston-cylinder unit by a propellant charge expanded. Disadvantage of this arrangement is first that the closing of the Front hood required force does not reach a certain threshold To allow the driver to comfortably access the front hood shut down. As the incident forces in a personal accident significant are, the front hood is pressed down quickly and it comes to the known personal injury, especially in the head area.
  • DE-A-27 11 338 describes a device for damping the impact of a Pedestrian, in which an airbag is arranged in the area of the cowl, the filling of which is triggered by a sensor signal. It can the Airbag be arranged so that it also raises a portion of the front hood, where he overcomes a spring force, the two about a pivot point interconnected arms, one of which is rotatable on the front hood and the other rotatably disposed on a fixed part of the motor vehicle is biased in an angled position. It is also proposed flexible profile body in strip form in the manner of a seal between To arrange hood and side parts, so as to further protect the Create impact.
  • DE-A-27 11 339 describes a hinged front on the front hood, at the linkage is designed so resilient that it is a horizontal Displacement of the bonnet by the impact of a pedestrian permits, wherein the front hood shifted to the rear side with a End of a rigid locking element is connected, the other End with displacement of the front hood backwards in a guide curve is displaced upwards and backwards so that the front hood a Moving upwards.
  • This lifting works only under the Condition that it actually leads to a horizontal displacement of the Bonnet comes, which is not always the case with children is guaranteed.
  • EP-A-0 509 690 describes a front hood which is so attached to its front the vehicle structure is articulated that due to an impact, the front hood is shifted to the rear, with the arranged on the rear side Closing or pivoting means due to a movement of the front hood after behind a pivotal movement of the front hood trigger upward, so that the deformation path of the hood under the impact of a pedestrian is enlarged.
  • the pivoting movement is for example by a Four-joint hinge, otherwise for pivoting the front hood is used when access to the engine and other parts released shall be. Again, a lifting of the bonnet occurs only with very strong Relocate the front hood, while a weak impact the front hood not moved backwards and thus not upwards.
  • the generic DE-A-197 12 961 describes the arrangement of a front hood on a Vehicle in which a hinge is arranged on a hinge carrier, which hinge carrier in the case of an impacting pedestrian upwards is pivoted to lift the front hood.
  • the problem is with this Arrangement that the hood lock for the front hood a pivot axis determines that allows no optional displacement of the hinge carrier, which is why the described hinge carrier blocked, for example.
  • JP-A-11 115 680 describes a bonnet assembly in which the bonnet due to a corresponding signal of a collision detector in Area of the windshield is raised. This is the front hood raised above a piston-cylinder unit, while the swivel joint the Relocation of the front hood over one in the area of the body side Linkage pivotally arranged handlebars by shifting in one Traces Langloch. The piston will not open and close the Front hood relocated.
  • JP-A-10 152 074 describes a bonnet assembly in which a Displacement of the front hoods avoided in a frontal crash should be achieved, this being achieved by a handlebar slot solution should.
  • a cross table assembly with which the support member for the hood be raised and lowered substantially parallel to the body can, provided. An operation of the device as a hinge for opening the front hood is not possible. Accordingly, the front hood is not firmly connected to the support member, but is unconnected.
  • the formation of the four-bar hinge with at least one handlebar with a changeable in their position linkage to a stop member for body or bonnet is an embodiment of the general thought of Invention, under overload, a change in the distance between the two at one Stop member or arranged on the body or on the front hood Admit linkages, so that the four-bar linkage for another Tilting curve, different from the actual pivoting curve of the four-bar linkage differs, release.
  • the front hood arrangement according to the invention advantageously has three End positions on, in addition to the known closed position, in which the Front hood is locked and the while driving the vehicle is taken and the well-known opening position in which the Access to the engine compartment is released for an operator is still one third end position, which can be referred to as overload position and the will be explained in more detail below to meet the requirements a receding under the impact of a pedestrian the bonnet to suffice.
  • the four-jointed hinge can advantageously be supplemented by means of further joints to form it as a seven-hinge hinge.
  • the front hood In the initial position, the front hood is through the hood lock, the is preferably arranged in the front region of the front hood, locked, the four-joint hinge consists of two arms and two at the in the End areas of the handlebars arranged pivot points articulated with the Handlebars connected to the sham parts, known about the attachment of the Bonnet or connected to the body of the vehicle, a Swivel path of the front hood defined, which swing a free back and forth the bonnet between the open position and the closed position to optional enabling access to the engine compartment.
  • the Opening position the achievement of which preferably with the assistance of a spring, For example, a gas spring, is supported, the front cover over a Rod between bodywork and bonnet held to one Operator to allow a safe access.
  • a spring For example, a gas spring
  • the front hood is in its closed position arranged and locked by the hood lock, so that the engine compartment, in a number of hard parts such as the engine block, the strut ohm and others are arranged through the bonnet in the manner of a protective Cover at a sufficient distance from the at least on impact for the head of a pedestrian is arranged damaging parts, an optional at the bottom of the front hood with a compressible trained, possibly lined with impact and / or sound energy absorbing foam or also has free space.
  • the front hood arrangement according to the invention makes possible starting at least from the closed position of the bonnet a shift of the Front hood towards the overload position, in which the distance between the bonnet and dangerous parts of the engine compartment are reduced, wherein according to the invention in case of overload, the four-joint hinge and possibly other parts of the front hood assembly for the displacement towards the overload position or in the overload position such a share Impact energy of the pedestrian in displacement or deformation energy convert that impact at a speed of the vehicle from to to 60 Km / h for the pedestrian with high probability for this none has more deadly consequences.
  • the bonnet Under the load of a pedestrian's impact, the bonnet passes through a change in position of at least one joint of the at least one link the four-bar hinge is shifted towards the overload position, wherein the displacement path by conversion of the impact energy due to the Gradually yielding to the bonnet mitigates the impact and thus the Severity of Aufprails reduced. It is understood that also one Deformation energy of the bonnet itself is to be considered here, this being by clamping in a hood lock and two four-bar hinges usually only limited possible.
  • At least one of the joints is at least a handlebar of the four-bar hinge to change its position trained, with the type of position change, as long as they are with one Energy conversion, not a specific technical one Design is set.
  • both arms of the four-bar hinge with, respectively formed a joint with a variable position both here as well a combination of two - possibly to a different extent - into one
  • both joints is distributed and thus the bonnet arrangement better can be dimensioned, this can also be an asymmetric Better catching bounces on the bonnet, and for the conversion the impact energy required displacement of the bonnet can be provided according to a little shorter, making the of the Front hood to the hard parts of the engine compartment to leave space can be reduced and the drag coefficient of the vehicle less is impaired.
  • the variable in position joint comprises an integrated Energy storage unit, which is stretched by the impact energy and thus causes a change in position of the joint.
  • This training is because of that of particular advantage because possibly unintentional Changes in length due to other overloads, for example the fact that Children jump up and down on the bonnet or something like that, though to one Pivoting movement in the direction of the overload position of the front hood, the bonnet following the accidental loading but pivot back to the closed position.
  • the energy storage are suitably arranged in the handlebar so that they are in the Closed position support the holding force of the front cover so far that at a head-on collision the occupant protection is not reduced.
  • the energy storage is a spring that alike Tension or compression spring can be formed and thus a change in length which takes place in the direction of the exciting force.
  • the spring can be a coil spring or the like act.
  • the energy store may further comprise a deformable component, the impact energy in deformation energy by irreversible plastic Shape change of the deformable component of the energy storage transforms. This is by the change in length of the handlebar the Impact energy due to the plastic deformation of the deformable Component degraded, with the resulting change in position or the the resulting proportion of the change in position of the joint only by a renewed plastic deformation, for example with the help of a corresponding tool, is reversible, which is why for this component After a collision, the bonnet stays in the direction of hers Overload position remains shifted.
  • a preferred deformable component is a sheath of the joint in foam or plastic that is plastically deformable.
  • the at least one formed with a variable position joint as to form a hinged end of a short-link the means of a Plastic coating a breaking point exceeding the normal load defines, thereby reducing the other articulated end of the short-link becomes effective and releases a new four-link system.
  • This variant has in particular the advantage that the four-jointed hinge by replacing of the shorter handlebar is recoverable, but alternatively, the entire Four-joint hinge can be replaced and the destroyed joint replaced by recycling.
  • This system has the particular advantage that the bonnet in the event of a head-on collision with another Vehicle or against a stationary obstacle still through the other, rigid handlebar is held, and thereby the danger clearly is reduced, that the front hood presses through the windscreen and so that enters the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
  • a telescopic joint is preferably the joint-bearing Reiter designed as a piston in a hollow cylinder, which with a or more fluid or pasty media is filled, wherein by penetration of the recorded rider in the cylinder these media by a Drosselauslledge be pressed in the cylinder, so that by a targeted Selection of media composition and throttle the resistance of the telescopic joint can both be designed such that a Minimum load must first be exceeded as well as such that the Available displacement path is optimized.
  • the cylinder also include a mechanical or gas spring.
  • bonnet assembly whose displacement movement is completely reversible, since in particular a Such an arrangement can easily be routinely checked the vehicle to its technical monitoring on functionality and Reliability. It is therefore appropriate provided that for the Case of use of components that cause an irreversible change in case of an impact, to arrange them so that they by optical Examination can be examined to see if they are already damaged.
  • the hood lock is in its closed state designed so that it allows a horizontal displacement of the front hood, around by the due to the at least one handlebar in case of overload on shifted to the rear, attacking on the front hood pivot points of at least one handlebar by a corresponding displacement movement to allow the front hood to the rear.
